Luke 8:30-54

³⁰Jesus asked him, saying, “What is your name?” And he said, “Legion,” because many demons had entered into him.

³¹And he kept imploring Him that He would not command them to go out into the abyss.

³²Now there was a herd of many swine feeding there on the mountain. And they kept imploring Him that He would permit them to enter them. And He permitted them.

³³Then when the demons came out from the man, they entered into the swine, and the herd ran violently down the steep bank into the lake and drowned.

³⁴And when those who fed them saw what had happened, they fled and reported it in the city and in the country.

³⁵Then they went out to see what had happened, and they came to Jesus, and found the man from whom the demons had come out of, sitting at the feet of Jesus, clothed and being of sound mind. And they were afraid.

³⁶And those also who saw reported to them how the demon-possessed man was healed.

³⁷Then the whole multitude from the surrounding region of the Gadarenes asked Him to go away from them, because they were gripped with great fear. And He got into the boat and returned.

³⁸Now the man from whom the demons had come out was begging Him that he might be with Him. But Jesus sent him away, saying,

³⁹“Return to your house, and tell what great things God has done for you.” And he departed, proclaiming throughout the whole city all the things that Jesus did for him.

⁴⁰So it was, when Jesus returned, that the crowd welcomed Him, for they were all waiting for Him.

⁴¹And behold, there came a man named Jairus, and he was a leader of the synagogue. And falling at the feet of Jesus, he was imploring Him to enter into his house,

⁴²for he had an only daughter about twelve years of age, and she was dying. But as He was going, the crowds were pressing against Him.

⁴³Now a woman, having a flow of blood for twelve years, who though she had spent her whole livelihood on physicians, was not able to be healed by anyone,

⁴⁴approaching from behind, touched the hem of His garment. And immediately her flow of blood stopped.

⁴⁵And Jesus said, “Who touched Me?” When all denied it, Peter and those with him said, “Master, the crowds are pressing You hard and crowding You, and You say, ‘Who touched Me?’ ”

⁴⁶But Jesus said, “Someone touched Me, for I perceived that power has gone out from Me.”

⁴⁷Now when the woman saw that she was not hidden, she came trembling; and falling down before Him, she recounted to Him before all the people the reason why she had touched Him and how she was healed immediately.

⁴⁸And He said to her, “Take courage, daughter, your faith has healed you. Go in peace.”

⁴⁹While He was still speaking, someone came from the ruler of the synagogue's house, saying to him, “Your daughter has died. Do not trouble the Teacher.”

⁵⁰But when Jesus heard it, He answered him, saying, “Do not be afraid; only believe, and she will be healed.”

⁵¹When He came into the house, He permitted no one to enter except Peter, John, and James, and the father and mother of the child.

⁵²Now all were weeping and mourning for her; but He said, “Do not weep; she is not dead, but asleep.”

⁵³And they were ridiculing Him, knowing that she had died.

⁵⁴But He sent them all outside, and having grasped her hand, He called, saying, “Child, arise.”
